The All High (Al-A'alaa)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
۞ Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High, 1 Who has created (everything), and then proportioned it; 2 who has ordained and guided, 3 Who bringeth forth the pasturage, 4 and then made it into a blackish straw. 5 [O Prophet!] We shall make you recite the Quran so that you will not forget any of it -- 6 Except what Allah pleases, surely He knows the manifest, and what is hidden. 7 We shall take you slowly towards ease. 8 Therefore give admonition in case the admonition profits (the hearer). 9 and he who fears shall remember, 10 Only the wretch will turn aside, 11 who will roast in the Great Fire, 12 wherein they will neither live nor die. 13 He is successful who groweth, 14 remembering his Lord's name and praying. 15 Nay, but you prefer the present life; 16 even though the life hereafter will be better and will last forever. 17 Surely this is in the ancient scrolls, 18 the Scrolls of Abraham and Moses. 19
